Default best CF hood?

what kind of CF hood is the best to get.
my hood flew up on the freeway and the body shop agreed to get me a CF hood instead of a OEM one. I have $500.00 to play with..
so far VIS is in the lead just because it is a better deal than fiber images.
opinions please (I know all of you have them)

Dont quote me on this...but i believe c/f hoods are like $100. or so, because of size and i think they have to be shiped by truck, and "The Man" sets shipping charges. Not shops.

inlinefour is by far the best according to my research so far..
their hoods are 450.00 but shipping is a mad 275.00
that goes over budget... 16 18 22 Im trying them next

I would be down with one but for do they take any other payments other than just "cash"? Like Paypal? I dunno, i just feel more safe that way.

i recommend Fiber Images as strong durable hoods that are bang for your buck. But im going through with this deal with a fiber glassing company in japan thats suppose to be 10 times better than benen or fiber images.

I have Fiber Images and I dont know what the guy above was saying about glossy mine is so glossy you can see a girls tit$ in it from across a parking lot (like a mirror). You do have to wax it like after every wash. light weight and has fiberglass bracing. 11-12lbs and like 4-5 layers thick striong as fock. and hardly flexes at high speeds. I got mine for 400+ cost to pick up in town 120mi. away at speedconcept.net</a> but <A HREF="http://racedezign.com" TARGET="_blank">http://racedezign.com say they will beat there prices call both and find out.. Go with Fiber Images I have looked at others and none can compare,wavy and fake looking brown and black and not grey and black. Fiber Images all the way. and even with 150 shiping its still within your budget.
